I know that's not improv but it helps to develop good habits and passing licks to prepare them in advance.. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Doing that will give you more vocabulary to use in your improvs. Try also to work on "linking" several licks together. Does that make sense?
